Nervousness is a symptom of the absence of God in your heart. And it is the result of your soul being irritated by the influence of the evil spirit.Note also that it most often manifests itself in situations and with people you disregard and don't respect very much, because you think you're better and wiser than them, that they're dependent on you and that you can afford to be.
Impulsive, nervous reactions indicate not only a low moral standard but, above all, a hidden frustration within the heart: dissatisfaction, a sense of injustice, resentment towards people who haven't met your expectations, and an unconscious desire for revenge. And when you look deeper into your heart, you will see the roots of this frustration: pride: an inflated opinion of yourself and contempt for others.
These are the true roots of your nervous, uncontrolled behavior, which offends your neighbors. This is a symptom of your inner division of soul, which the tempter has access to because there is too little of God within it.Because there is too little humility and inner consent to accept My will. To accept all events that befall you as My grace and My instruction dictated by love and concern for the sanctification of your soul.
Leading your soul to holiness is more important to Me than using you as My instrument for others.Because I love you and care for you, I do not allow your actions and situations to strengthen pride in your heart: a high opinion of yourself and a low opinion of others. If only you would remain close to My heart in humility and love, and if you could deep down forgive—not so much the people you subconsciously accuse—but your God for not fulfilling your will. How different your heart would look, how great and profound peace and unity would fill your interior.
How great gentleness would encompass your entire nature, and how great love for all creation. You would be happy, yet only a happy person, deep within their soul, is gentle, patient—subtle in their reactions, and tenderly bestowing kindness and love upon everyone, always.My child, have you already journeyed into the depths of your soul to find the Holy Land? To wash your sorely aching heart with tears – to wash it in My arms? Do you already understand and desire only this pilgrimage? A holy time – the Mystery of the Encounter with your Spouse?
You are the conscience of those to whom My words will reach. A person living as a hermit – in Me – becomes the conscience of the world. In their soul, Satan wages a battle for the salvation of My people. In the soul of the offering, a battle rages for the souls of those for whom it has offered itself. The fate of the world depends on priests and religious souls. Not on their external actions, but on the victory within their own souls in the battle that Satan wages for the people for whom I have called them. Since you offered yourself to Me for others, your conscience is no longer yours. On the purity of your heart and your conscience, others depend: their salvation and their holiness. Such is the relationship between you and others, and such is the responsibility. Because God's wisdom cannot be comprehended, we must trust Him like a child.

Do not hide your weaknesses, for hidden weakness rules you. But you rule over revealed weakness.
